Nintendo Voice Chat: Audrey Hosts! (Uh Oh)

The chatters break down all the news that's broken since they last gathered. Also... Audrey's hosting?!

By Audrey Drake

Welcome back to another electrifying edition of Nintendo Voice Chat! A lot of Wii U and 3DS news has come to light since our last podcast - and by golly, we're going to chat about it.

And also... a certain Aminka/Audrey Drake may be hosting this one. GULP. Just remember to be nice to Audrey if it all goes to heck (spoiler: it does).

And joining me in my possibly tragic hosting experiment is the one and only Rich "Papa Koopa" George, Sam "Party Animal" Claiborn, and Andrew "Pass the Ketchup" Goldfarb.

As for what's on the chat agenda (chagenda?) - glad you asked! Today we touch on Nintendo's shaky financial situation, the Nintendo Network announcement and the possibilities of the Wii U's NFC capabilities. Hint - it means more than that the system will make Nebraska Fried Chicken. Much more.

We also talk about what games we've been playing recently and hold out very first THUNDERSHOCK ROUND. What is it? You'll have to listen to find out.

And hey, since we have your attention, don't forget to join our Nintendo Voice Chat Facebook page. While you're there, give us a like! You do like us, don't you? Right? Umm... right?

In any case, send your comments, questions and so on to nvc@ign.com. We love reading all of your e-mails, even if we can't answer them all on air. The crew routinely answers questions via e-mail as well - so get writing!
